I agree with all of the sentiments here.  It's simply staggering that so
much effort is having to be spent to make developers accept that this is
a usability issue - pure and simple.  On a 24" screen at 1920x1200, I
cannot see the top right corner of the screen at all when working in a
window on the left side.  When I *do* glance over to the right, it's to
the bottom of the screen where my panel and notification area is.  (Big
hint there guys.. *notification area*).

In the time wasted by developers attempting to justify the unjustifiable
in this - and other - bug reports, they could have added the option to
move the location already.  It's crass, idiotic, and downright insulting
to even *think* you know better than your target audience, let alone
come right out and say it.  I hope you guys that are spouting or
defending this rubbish never have to earn a living writing software for
paying customers (as I do).  You think the abuse you're getting here is
bad..?
